I found another site that says she's taken up "off road" motorcycling. I'm gonna run out and get some knobbies for my Brutale!
"Screen siren Angela Jolie has taken up off-road motorcycling so she can deliver food parcels to the world's needy.
The Girl, Interrupted beauty, who works for the United Nations, has been practicing the skills she will need to reach out-of-the-way areas in the grounds of her Buckinghamshire, England, country mansion.
The 29-year-old bought a 750cc MV Augusta Brutale from Red Dog Motorcycles in Edenbridge, Kent and staff there were impressed by her natural ability."
A shop assistant says: "She's having lessons near her home in Buckinghamshire (England). She's a natural."
Why not just donate to the Red Cross and let professionals figure out how to get the goods to those who need it? I do appreciate her learning to ride and love her choice of bike. But, if she intends to jump on a dirt bike and deliver medical supplies to desolate parts of the world, I think she is ill advised at best.
She seems willing to put her money where her mouth is when it comes to helping the kiddies, I give her props for that. If using her starpower to shed some light and awareness on these issues gets her more face time in the press and helps her career I don't have a problem with it.
'Course a Triumph Tiger would be a better choice and all, but she's making the effort.
Yeah, I'll say that for Angelina. Other loudmouth celebrities are travelling around on other people's nickels pretending to support various causes while actually just seeking the limelight because they are out of work. Angelina has actually written her own checks for things like setting up a nature preserve in Thailand.
